Os fatores de risco para essa doen?a n?o s?o completamente compreendidos, mas incluem desregula??o da resposta imune oriundos de defeitos na placenta??o, fatores ambientais e gen?ticos. O presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar associa??o varia??o na quantidade de receptores de citocinas pr?-inflamat?rias (IL-1R, IL-6R e TNF-?R) estariam envolvidos com a pr?-ecl?mpsia. Receptores de citocinas (IL-1R2, TNF-?R1 e IL-6R) foram avaliados em c?lulas mononucleares das gr?vidas normotensas (controle n=11) e gr?vidas com pr?-ecl?mpsia (PE, n=24). Mulheres com pr?-eclampsia tinham peso mais elevado no in?cio da gravidez (p=0.0171). Foi observado uma diminui??o de mon?citos cl?ssicos, mas n?o de mon?citos intermedi?rios e n?o-cl?ssicos na pr?-ecl?mpsia. A frequ?ncia dos receptores de citocinas proinflamat?rias IL-1R2, TNF-?R IL-6R aderidos a membrana das subpopula??es de mon?citos (cl?ssicos, intermedi?rios e n?o cl?ssicos) e linf?citos (CD3+CD4+ e CD3+CD8+) estavam diminu?das em pacientes com pr?-ecl?mpsia, quando comparados com gr?vidas normais. A redu??o na quantidade de receptores de citocinas IL-1R2, TNF-?R1 e IL-6R em mon?ciots e linf?citos pode ser um fator mantenedor do estado inflamat?rio na pr?-eclampsia. / Preeclampsia is a disease specific of human pregnancy that affects 3-8% of pregnant women, and it is one of the three leading causes of maternal mortality and morbidity. The disease is characterized by hypertension and proteinuria after the 20th week of gestation. The risk factors for this disease are not completely understood but appear to include dysregulation of the immune response arising from defects in placentation, environmental and genetic factors. This study aimed to determine whether the variation in the amount of proinflammatory cytokine receptors IL-1R2, IL-6R and TNF-?R1 would be involved in preeclampsia. They were recruited women with preeclampsia (n=24) and women who evolved during pregnancy without changes in blood pressure (n=12) were recruited. Clinical and laboratory data were collected. The cytokine receptors (IL-1R2, TNF-?R1 and IL-6R) were assessed in mononuclear cells isolated from peripheral blood using flow cytometry (Control = 8; PE = 24). C-reactive protein (CRP) was determined by CRP ultrasensitive method (Control = 7; PE = 18) was performed using sera pregnant women. Women with preeclampsia had higher weight at the beginning of the pregnancy (p=0.0171) and lower gestational age at delivery (0.0008). Classical monocytes were decreased in preeclampsia but not intermediate or non-classical monocytes. The frequency of IL-1R2 pro inflammatory cytokine receptors is decreased in women with PE only in the subpopulation of non-classical monocytes (p = 0.0011). TNF-?R1 receptor and IL-6R, had a decreased frequency in the three subpopulations of monocyte (classic, intermediate and non-classical) when compared to women with normal pregnancy. An increase in IL-1R2 receptor in TCD4+ lymphocytes, but a decrease in TNF-receptor and IL-6R in women with preeclampsia were found. No differences in the frequency of those receptors in CD3+/CD8+ in preeclampsia. There was no difference in C-reactive protein in preeclampsia. The reduction in the amount of IL-1R2, TNF- ?R1 and IL-6R monocytes and lymphocytes can be involved in the regulation of inflammation observed in preeclampsia, contributing to disease.

It is associated with higher risk of developing a hypertensive syndrome during pregnancy and maternal cardiovascular diseases, but also with increased risk of adverse fetal outcomes such as macrosomia and fetal death. Objectives: the aim was to evaluate endothelial function in pregnancies with and without gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods: this case control study measured endothelial function trough brachial artery flow mediated dilatation (FMD) using ultrasound, evaluating pregnant women between twenty and thirty six weeks gestation. Sample size was calculated to detect a difference of one standard deviation in FMD (90% power and alpha 0.05) between groups. Results: The study sample consisted of thirty-six patients in each group. The clinical and demographic characteristics were similar in both groups, although the glucose status and the basal body mass index (BMI) were significantly higher in the group of pregnant women with diabetes. Median FMD was significantly reduced in gestational diabetes group (18.3%, IQR: 11.9-23.3%) compared to the control group (9.7%, IQR: 5.7-14.1%; p<0.001), indicating impaired endothelial function. Cohen's d was 0.90 and the effect-size r was 0.41, which is considered a large Cohen?s Standard effect. Conclusions: Gestational diabetes is associated with endothelial dysfunction. / Introdu??o: A diabetes gestacional ? uma doen?a potencialmente lesiva ? m?e e ao feto durante a gesta??o, est? associada a maior risco de desenvolvimentos de s?ndrome hipertensivas na gesta??o, aumento de doen?as cardiovasculares e desfechos adversos fetais como macrossomia e morte fetal. Objetivos: Analisar a fun??o endotelial em gesta??es com e sem diabetes mellitus gestacional (DMG). M?todos: Estudo caso-controle que avaliou a fun??o endotelial atrav?s da dilata??o mediada por fluxo (DMF) da art?ria braquial, aferida atrav?s de um m?todo ecogr?fico entre vinte e trinta e seis semanas de gesta??o, em pacientes com e sem DMG. A amostra foi calculada para detectar uma diferen?a de um desvio padr?o na DMF, com poder de 90%, e erro alfa de 0,05. Resultados: Foram selecionadas trinta e seis (36) pacientes em cada grupo, as caracter?sticas cl?nicas e demogr?ficas foram semelhantes nos dois grupos, apenas o status da glicose e o ?ndice de massa corporal basal (IMC) foram diferentes entre eles. A mediana da DMF da art?ria braquial foi significativamente menor no grupo diabetes gestacional (18,3%, IQR: 11,9-23,3% e 9,7%, IQR: 5,7-14,1%;nos grupos-controle e GDM respectivamente, p <0,001), indicando comprometimento na fun??o endotelial. O d de ?Cohen`s? foi de 0,90 e o tamanho do efeito r foi de 0,41, considerado grande de acordo com a escalada de efeitos de Cohen. Conclus?es: Diabetes gestacional esteve associado ? disfun??o endotelial neste estudo, com a metodologia proposta.

The precise physiopathology remains unclear and there isn t an experimental model of this disorder. OBJECTIVES : The objectives of this paper were (1) the clinical and radiological evaluation of patients with PRES in the Hospital S?o Lucas-PUCRS and (2) the development of a translational model based on clinical features that mimetize this syndrome in pregnants Wistar rats. METHODS : It was performed a review of clinical data, neuroimage and blood basic test of 25 patients with PRES, that were followed in Hospital S?o Lucas-PUCRS in the period from March 15 of 2007 to September 15 of 2011. Based on clinical features and neuroimagem findings, we developed a rat model of PRES using pregnant Wistar rats, which were submitted to a reduction of uterine pressure perfusion (RUPP), measurement of arterial blood pressure with an invasive catheter and a brain anatomo-pathologic study, after Evans s blue venous infusion to verify the permeability of the blood-brain-barrier. RESULTS : Our clinical sample consisted of 25 patients (4 men and 21 women) with mean age of 27,84 years old (range from 2 to 74 years old). The most common causes of PRES reported in this series were associated with pregnant situations that occurred in 11 cases (44%). The symptom more commonly reported was headache in 18 patients (72%). The occipital lobe was the most common topography of the magnetic ressonance abnormality (edema) and occurred in 23 cases (92%). The highest value of the systolic blood pressure presented the mean of 176 mmHg and the highest value of the diastolic blood pressure presented the mean of 95,2 mmHg. Animals submitted to RUPP to simulate the PRES presented increase of the blood-brain-barrier permeability and elevation of blood pressure, when compared with the control animals. CONCLUSION : In our series, PRES occurred predominantly in women and the most frequent triggers were obstetric causes; headache was the most common symptom and the neuroimage findings showed a predominance of posterior alteration suggesting a vasogenic edema due a breakdown of blood brain barrier. The experimental rat model was developed based on these clinical observations, so, we used pregnant rats submitted to reduction of uterine pressure perfusion. We identified in these animals increase of blood pressure and a breakdown of blood brain barrier corroborating to establish an experimental model of PRES. We believe that an experimental model of PRES could be important for future studies allowing a better comprehension of this syndrome. / INTRODU??O : A S?ndrome Encefalopatia Revers?vel Posterior (Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome PRES) ? uma entidade clinico-radiol?gica caracterizada por cefal?ia, altera??o do n?vel de consci?ncia, crises convulsivas e altera??o visual e est? associado a um edema provavelmente vasog?nico na subst?ncia branca encef?lica, predominantemente afetando os lobos occipitais e parietais. A fisiopatogenia do PRES permanece desconhecida e n?o existe um modelo experimental de tal dist?rbio. OBJETIVOS : O objetivo desse trabalho ? avaliar apresenta??o cl?nica juntamente com os exames de neuroimagem realizados por pacientes com S?ndrome da Encefalopatia Revers?vel Posterior no Hospital S?o Lucas-PUCRS e baseado nos achados cl?nicos desenvolver um modelo translacional que mimetize essa s?ndrome em ratos Wistar. M?TODOS : Foram revisados os prontu?rio juntamente com os exames de neuroimagem e laboratoriais de 25 pacientes portadores da s?ndrome da encefalopatia revers?vel posterior, os quais foram atendidos no Hospital S?o Lucas-PUCRS no per?odo de 15 de mar?o de 2007 ? 15 de setembro de 2011. A partir das caracter?sticas cl?nicas e de neuroimagem analisadas nesta pesquisa desenvolvemos modelo experimental de PRES com o uso de ratas Wistar gestantes, as quais foram submetidas ? redu??o da press?o de perfus?o uterina (RUPP do ingl?s Reduction of Uterine Pressure Perfusion), medida de press?o arterial invasiva e estudo anatomopatol?gico dos enc?falos dos animais, ap?s infus?o venosa de azul de Evans para avalia??o da permeabilidade da barreira hemato-encef?lica. RESULTADOS : Dos 25 pacientes com PRES analisados com idade m?dia de 27,84 anos (variando de 2 anos a 74 anos), 4 eram homens e 21 mulheres. As causas e/ou desencadeadores mais comumente encontrados foram de origem obst?tricas em 11 casos (44%). O sintoma mais freq?entemente referido foi cefal?ia em 18 pacientes (72%). A topografia mais comumente acometida pelo edema gerado pelo PRES foi occipital em 23 pacientes (92%). O valor da press?o arterial sist?lica m?xima em m?dia foi de 176 mmHg e a press?o arterial diast?lica m?xima em m?dia foi de 95,2 mmHg. Os animais submetidos ao modelo experimental proposto atrav?s do procedimento RUPP para mimetizar o PRES apresentaram altera??es de permeabilidade da barreira hematoencef?lica e eleva??o da press?o arterial quando comparado aos animais controles. CONCLUS?O : Na nossa casu?stica o PRES foi nitidamente predominante em mulheres, os fatores desencadeantes/causais mais frequentes foram os de origem obst?trica, predominando a cefaleia como sintoma; os exames de neuro-imagem confirmaram o predom?nio posterior das altera??es estruturais e sugerem serem decorrentes de edema vasog?nico com quebra da barreira hematoencef?lica. O modelo experimental em ratos Wistar foi desenvolvido baseado nestas observa??es cl?nicas motivo pelo qual utilizamos ratas gestante submetidas a redu??o da press?o de perfus?o uterina. Identificamos nestes animais a quebra da barreira hematoencef?lica corroborando para o estabelecimento do modelo experimental do PRES, o qual pensamos que possa ser de fundamental import?ncia para estudos posteriores que permitam uma melhor compreens?o desta s?ndrome.

Methods: Sixty-four pregnant women at the diagnosis of preeclampsia were selected. FMD and routine preeclampsia markers were assessed at enrollment and followed until delivery. Women were grouped and compared according to their outcomes (26 developed complications and 38 did not). Results: Median FMD is impaired in women with complicated preeclampsia (7.44%; IQR 2.20-13.34%) compared to those without complications (11.80%; IQR 5.36-16.66%) (p=0,03). The cutoff value of FMD &#8804;4.5% was associated with approximately four-fold odds increment of any complication (OR 3.79; IC95% 1.23-11.70), similar to the protein to creatinine ratio >2,0 (OR 4.50; IC95% 1.21-16.74). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure were not associated with risk for complication and uric acid had a borderline significance (OR 3.38; IC95% 0,98-11,72). Moreover, when major complications (eclampsia, HELLP syndrome or stillbirth) were selected as a composite outcome FMD was even lower (2.84%; IQR 0.00 7.22%) and FMD &#8804;4.5% was associated with a marked 15 fold increased risk for these specific events (OR 15.55; IC95% 3.55-68.16). Although FMD seems to have a weak accuracy to predict any preeclampsia complications (AUC=0.66; IC95% 0.52-0.79), ROC curve analysis showed that it may be a prognostic marker for major complications (AUC=0.84; IC95% 0.73-0.96). Conclusion: FMD is associated with morbidity of preeclampsia, markedly in women with eclampsia, HELLP syndrome or stillbirth. FMD at preeclampsia diagnostic moment may be used as a prognostic marker of these poor outcomes. / Objetivos: avaliar a associa??o entre a Dilata??o Mediada por Fluxo (DMF) da art?ria braquial e morbidade por pr?-ecl?mpsia. M?todos: Foram selecionados sessenta e quatro gr?vidas com pr?-ecl?mpsia. A DMF e marcadores de pr?-ecl?mpsia foram avaliados no no momento do diagn?stico da doen?a a as pacientes foram seguidas at? o parto. As mulheres foram agrupados e comparadas de acordo com os seus desfechos (26 com complica??es e 38 sem complica??o). Resultados: A DMF est? comprometida em mulheres com pr?-ecl?mpsia complicada (7,44%; IQR 2,20-13,34%) comparada com aqueles sem complica??es (11,80%; IQR 5,36- 16,66%) (p = 0,03). O valor de corte de DMF &#8804; 4,5% foi associada com aproximadamente quatro vezes mais risco de qualquer complica??o (OR 3,79 IC95% 1,23-11,70), semelhante ? rela??o prote?na/creatinina > 2,0 (OR 4,50 IC95% 1,21-16,74). Press?o arterial sist?lica e diast?lica n?o foram associados com risco de complica??o e o ?cido ?rico teve uma signific?ncia lim?trofe (OR 3,38, IC95% 0,98-11,72). Al?m disso, quando as principais complica??es (ecl?mpsia, s?ndrome HELLP ou morte fetal) foram selecionadas como um desfecho composto a DMF foi ainda mais baixa (2,84%; IQR 0,00-7,22%) e o valor da DMF &#8804; 4,5% foi associado com um acentuado aumento de 15 vezes no risco destes eventos espec?fico (OR 15,55; IC95% 3,55-68,16). Embora a DMF tenha pouca capacidade de predi??o de quaisquer complica??es pela pr?-ecl?mpsia (AUC = 0,66, IC95% 0,52-0,79), an?lise da curva ROC mostrou que pode ser um bom marcador de progn?stico para complica??es graves (AUC = 0,84, IC95% 0,73-0,96). Conclus?o: a DMF est? associada com morbidade da pr?-ecl?mpsia, notadamente em mulheres com ecl?mpsia, s?ndrome HELLP ou morte fetal. DMF no momento do diagn?stico da pr?-ecl?mpsia pode ser usado como marcador progn?stico destes desfechos desfavor?veis.

A qualitative approach was chosen, together with semi-structured interviews, participative observation and Test of Free Association of Words (TFAW). The data were collected in February and June 2007 at Maternidade-Escola Janu?rio Cicco (MEJC), Natal, RN, Brazil with 61 pregnant women and 87 professionals, 20 of each group were interviewed. An interpretative and understanding perspective was used similar to that of Gadamer s hermeneutics and with the construction of themes and empirical categories. The pregnant women showed fear preeclampsia and its consequences, and to know very little about the subject and also a desire to know more. The changes that occurred with the illness were more related to the emotional order than to the healthy lifestyle they have adopted. Some lack of preparation of the basic units was observed, in order to meet and guide the pregnant women to the reference unit. Professionals knew the customers characteristics, about their fear and about their little knowledge on this illness. Nevertheless, they did not include them in the treatment. It was observed the absence of conversation over the illness between professionals and patients and also the inability of the former to deal with emotional issues. A new way of looking into the preeclampsia assistance is necessary. A way that focuses on the collective construction of intervention and approach strategies; one which includes subjective aspects in an hermeneutic perspective of health / O presente estudo objetivou compreender as percep??es de gestantes e profissionais de sa?de sobre a pr?-ecl?mpsia e a rela??o entre profissional e paciente.

Os dados foram coletados entre fevereiro e junho de 2007, na Maternidade-Escola Janu?rio Cicco (MEJC), Natal-RN, com 61 gestantes e 87 profissionais, dos quais 20 de cada grupo participaram das entrevistas. Utilizou-se uma perspectiva interpretativa e compreensiva aproximada ? hermen?utica de Gadamer, com a constru??o de temas e categorias emp?ricas. As gestantes revelaram medo da pr?-ecl?mpsia e suas conseq??ncias e mostraram que sabiam pouco a respeito do tema e que gostariam de saber mais. As mudan?as ocorridas, decorrentes, da doen?a foram mais de ordem emocional, do que relacionada ? ado??o de estilo de vida saud?vel. Observou-se despreparo das unidades b?sicas em atender e encaminhar as gestantes com pr?-ecl?mpsia para unidade de refer?ncia. Os profissionais conheciam caracter?sticas da clientela, sabiam do medo que sentiam e do pouco conhecimento sobre a doen?a, por?m n?o as envolviam no tratamento. Na rela??o entre profissional e paciente observou-se aus?ncia de di?logo sobre a doen?a e inabilidade, por parte dos primeiros em lidar com quest?es emocionais.

The study population was composed of 573 women selected from a databank belonging to the Women s Health Research Group of the Gynecology Department at Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, with a history of preeclampsia, and normotensives who gave birth at this institution five years before. The final sample consisted of 147 women, 64 in the group with a history of PE and 83 normotensives. Data were collected on a questionnaire containing the following: sociodemographic aspects, anthropometric measures, life habits, personal and family history of pregnancy-induced hypertension, family history of cardiovascular diseases and frequency of measuring current blood pressure levels. In relation to the association between cardiovascular risk and altered blood pressure (&#8805;130x85 mmHg), the likelihood of exhibiting the latter condition was significantly higher in women with a history of preeclampsia (CI 95% 4.12-38.92), the overweight and obese (CI 95% 1.70-20.75), and in those with a family historyof CVD and personal history of PIH (CI 95% 0.78-47.07 and CI 95% 3.20-25.39) respectively. Likewise, the probability of having altered blood pressure was higher in women with fasting glycemia &#8805;100mg/dL (CI 95% 2.09-24.73), as well as in those with triglycerides &#8805;150mg/dl (CI 95% 1.72-9.66). After fitting the logistic model, diagnosis previous preeclampsia and altered triglycerides remained as explanatory variables.The women with a history of preeclampsia five years before exhibited altered blood pressure levels, clinical and laboratory manifestations suggestive of elevated risk for cardiovascular disease, as well as family and personal history of hypertension. There is no differential treatment or adequate outpatient follow-up for this population in basic health care units / O estudo teve como objetivo analisar o risco cardiovascular atual em mulheres com hist?rico de pr?-ecl?mpsia havia cinco anos e oseu seguimento no Sistema ?nico de Sa?de. Trata-se de pesquisa quantitativa do tipo transversal, realizada na Maternidade Escola Janu?rio Cicco. Avaliaram-se 147 mulheres, sendo 64 com hist?rico de pr?-eclampsia, comparadasa 83 com gesta??o normal. A pesquisa foi realizada atrav?s de busca ativa com coleta de sangue para mensura??o bioqu?mica de marcadores cardiovasculares e verifica??o da press?o arterial. Averiguaram-se aspectos sociodemogr?ficos, medidas antropom?tricas, h?bitos de vida, antecedentes pessoais e familiares para hipertens?o na gesta??o e antecedentes familiares de doen?a cardiovascular. Utilizou-se pacote estat?stico para as an?lises considerando n?vel de signific?ncia de 5%. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comit? de ?tica em Pesquisa da Universidade do Federal do Rio Grande do Norte. No que se refere ? associa??o entre condi??es de risco cardiovascular e presen?a de n?veis press?ricos alterados (&#8805;130x85 mmHg), observa-se que a chance de ter press?o arterial alterada foi significativamente maior nas mulheres com hist?rico de pr?-ecl?mpsia (P< 0,001), nas com sobrepeso e obesas (P= 0,002), e ainda entre as com antecedente familiar de doen?a cardiovascular (P= 0,039) e com antecedente pessoal de doen?a hipertensiva da gesta??o (P< 0,001). Da mesma forma, a chance de ter press?o arterial alterada foi maior nas mulheres com glicemia de jejum &#8805;100mg/dL (P= 0,002), bem como nas com triglicer?deos &#8805;150mg/dl (P= 0,001). Conclui-se que as mulheres com hist?rico de pr?-ecl?mpsia havia cinco anos apresentavam atualmente manifesta??es sugestivas de risco elevado para doen?a cardiovascular, antecedentes familiares e pessoais de hipertens?o, bem como n?o h? atualmente atendimento diferenciado, nem seguimentoambulatorial adequado nas redes de aten??o prim?ria para essa popula??o

Em cada avalia??o foram calculados os intervalos de confian?a de 95% para as estimativas de conformidade, suas diferen?as absoluta e relativa e o valor Z (uma cauda), sendo considerado significativo valor de p <0,05. Resultados: Houve aumento da taxa total de adequa??o dos crit?rios (p1=88+3%, p2=92+1%; p=0,018) e solicita??o de ultrassom fetal (p1=72+10%, p2=88+4%; p=0,023), e redu??o no uso de anti-hipertensivos orais (p1=100%, p2=94+3%; p=0,039), n?o houve altera??es significativas nos demais crit?rios. Conclus?o: A realiza??o de um ciclo de melhoria est? associado a um aumento na taxa de ades?o as recomenda??es baseadas em evid?ncia para o tratamento de pacientes com DHG. / Objectives: To conduct a quality improvement cycle in a maternal intensive care unit (MICU) and assess their impact on multidisciplinary care for patients with gestational hypertensive disease (GHD). Methods: An improvement cycle was conducted from May to July 2015; pre and post intervention were from January to April and from August to October of that year, respectively. The criteria for evaluation were: (1) request for laboratory tests at admission in MICU; (2) obstetrical ultrasound request when admission to the MICU; (3) control of pressure peaks with the use of intravenous hydralazine; (4) use of oral antihypertensive drugs for blood pressure control; (5) use of inhibitors of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARBs); (6) intravenous fluid restriction; (7) indication of betamethasone steroids in patients with gestational age less than 35 weeks; (8) use of magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) and (9) MgSO4 maintenance postpartum. All women admitted in MICU diagnosed with GHD pre and post intervention were eligible for the study. The implementation of the recommendations was investigated before (n = 50) and after (n = 50) the implementation of the quality improvement cycle. The primary outcome was the rate of overall and individual adherence to evidence-based recommendations in patients with GHD. In each evaluation were calculated 95% confidence intervals for the estimates of compliance, their absolute and relative differences and the Z value (one tail), being considered significant an p <0.05. Results: There was increase in total adherence ratio (p1 = 88 + 3%, p2 = 92 + 1%; p = 0.018) and individual fetal ultrasound request (p1 = 72 + 10%, p2 = 88 + 4%; p = 0.023), and a reduced use of oral anti-hypertensives (p1 = 100%, p2 = 94 + 3%; p = 0.039), there were no significant changes in other criteria. Conclusion: The completion of a quality improvement cycle was associated with an increase in the adhesion rate of the evidence-based recommendations for the treatment of patients with GHD.

This study aimed to analyze the perceptions, meanings and feelings of mothers on the hypertensive syndromes in pregnancy and premature obstetric labor. The research was qualitative and has a theoretical methodological the Social Representations Theory(SRT) in the approach to the Central Nucleus Theory. The study included 70 women, mean age 29 years, predominantly school to high school, most of them married or in consensual union, primiparous and prevalence of cesarean delivery occurred between 32 and 37 weeks of pregnancy.The data were collected from may to december 2008 in the Maternity School Janu?rio Cicco in Natal , and obtained through the following instruments for data collection: questionnaire including questions about socio-demographic status; the Free Words Association Test (FWAT) and and verbalized mental image construction used three stimuli: such as pregnancy with high blood pressure, preterm birth and NICU, and interview with the following guiding question: what it meant for you to have a pregnancy with high blood pressure and consequently the birth of a premature baby? Data analysis was performed using multi-method obtained from the data processing by EVOC (Ensemble Programmes Permettant L 'Analyze des ?vocations) and ALCESTE (Analyse Lexicale par Contexte d'un Ensemble de Segment de Texte) and thematic analysis in categories. The results will be presented in four thematic units under the following representative universes: HSP, prematurity as a result of HSP, NICU and the social representations of mothers on the hypertensive disorder of pregnancy sequenced premature birth and hospitalization of the child in the NICU. The results obtained by multimethod analyses showed similar constructions and point to death as the central nucleus and negative aspects, coping strategies, need of care, knowledge about the disease, fragility and meanings of the NICU as peripheral elements. It is considered that the perceptions, meanings and feelings of puerperal women in relation to HSPs and to premature delivery are a negative social representation, with representational elements that may have influenced the adverse effects on the disease and its consequences. We suggest action on the peripheral elements of this representation, with adequate orientation, early diagnosis, effective conduct, receptive attitude on the part of the team, health promotion measures and effective public policies, in order to improve the care provided to puerperal women, making them feel welcome and minimizing their suffering / As s?ndromes hipertensivas da gravidez (SHG) s?o complica??es do per?odo grav?dico puerperal e podem levar ? prematuridade neonatal e consequente hospitaliza??o do rec?m-nascido em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal (UTIN). O estudo objetivou compreender percep??es, significados e sentimentos de pu?rperas relativos ?s SHGs que tiveram como consequ?ncia o parto prematuro e a hospitaliza??o do filho na UTIN. ? um estudo qualitativo que teve como referencial te?rico metodol?gico a Teoria das Representa??es Sociais (TRS), na abordagem complementar da Teoria do N?cleo Central. Participaram do estudo 70 mulheres ; com idade m?dia de 29 anos; a maioria com n?vel m?dio de escolaridade; em uni?o consensual; prim?paras e com parto ces?rio ocorrido entre 32 e 37 semanas de gesta??o. Os dados foram coletados de maio a dezembro de 2008, na Maternidade Escola Janu?rio Cicco, em Natal/RN, por meio de: question?rio para caracteriza??o sociodemogr?fica das participantes; t?cnica de associa??o livre de palavras (TALP); constru??o verbalizada de imagens mentais; e entrevista, com a seguinte quest?o norteadora: O que significou para voc? ter uma gravidez com press?o alta e, como consequ?ncia, o nascimento de um filho prematuro? A an?lise de dados foi realizada por meio de multim?todos, a partir do processamento de dados pelos software EVOC (Ensemble de programmes permettant L analyse des evocations) e ALCESTE (An?lise lexical por contexto em um conjunto de segmentos de texto), e an?lise tem?tica categorial. Os resultados foram apresentados em quatro unidades tem?ticas, no ?mbito dos seguintes universos representativos: SHG; prematuridade como consequ?ncia das SHGs; UTIN; e as representa??es sociais de pu?rperas sobre as SHGs seguidas do nascimento prematuro e hospitaliza??o do filho na UTIN. Os resultados obtidos por meio dos multim?todos de an?lise apresentaram constru??es semelhantes entre si e apontam a morte como n?cleo perif?rico, aspectos negativos, estrat?gias de enfrentamento, necessidades de cuidados, conhecimento sobre a doen?a, fragilidade e significados da UTIN. Considera-se que as percep??es, significados e sentimentos de pu?rperas relativas ?s SHGs e ao parto prematuro constituem uma representa??o social negativa, com elementos representacionais que podem ter influenciado os efeitos adversos sobre a doen?a e suas consequ?ncias. Sugere-se atua??o sobre os elementos perif?ricos dessa representa??o, com orienta??es adequadas, diagn?stico precoce, condutas efetivas, postura acolhedora da equipe, atitudes de promo??o ? sa?de e pol?ticas p?blicas eficazes, de forma a melhorar a assist?ncia ?s mulheres/pu?rperas, acolhendo-as adequadamente e minimizando seus sofrimentos
